The beginnings of my Crazy Quilt pillow.

This is the start of my crazy quilt pillow. You cant really see the

embroidery ( that's probably a good thing since I need a lot more practice.) I really enjoy this,, I'm learning new stitches and I even did a couple of things with silk ribbon!, not to mention looking for the little things to add to it like buttons etc.!So much fun.

It looks very pretty. One thing I saw the other day on TV is that if you use a 5 sided odd shaped block as the starting block, the crazy quilt design grows more easily. I only tell you this because I started a crazy quilt block and got kinda stuck, years ago.
